This Austrian plate book describes the voyage undertaken by the Crown Prince, Rudolf, son of Austrian Emperor Franz Josef, to Egypt and the Holy Land, and is illustrated with several of Franz von Pausinger’s drawings. The trip began in Vienna and passed through Corfu to Alexandria, Cairo, Suez, Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Nazareth and concluded at Haifa. Five years after the publication of this work, the Crown Prince and his wife died at his hunting lodge, apparently through suicide.
